"I've seen first hand how Superman actually transforms
people's lives. I have seen children dying of brain tumors who wanted
as their last request to be able to talk to me, and have gone to
their graves with a peace brought on by knowing that their belief in
this kind of character is intact. I've seen that Superman really
matters. They're connecting with something very basic: the ability
to overcome obstacles, the ability to persevere, the ability to
understand difficulty and to turn your back on it."
